Try looking in your owner's manual...

It was pretty easy.

Filter and drain bolt is right next to each other. (behind the pass side rear wheel.

Why the Faq page tell me to remove the wheel and use 4 jackstand? I don't know.

2 jackstand maybe but didn't need to remove wheel .

I don't even use jackstands.

Edit: I always use jackstands when I jack the car up. What I meant to say was, I don't jack the car up to change the oil.

i find that an oil change is easier for the nsx then most hondas. you dont' have to reach up all far to get to the oil filter.

Yes, I dont understand the jacking up the car part at all..I never have had to do that.

What I find more of an issue is using drive-on ramps. Most have an approach angle that is too sharp to clear either the front spoiler or rear panels behind the wheels. I finally found some ABS ramps at AutoZone that were sloped gently enough to allow a drive on. I find the ramps much quicker and easier than jacking and stands for most undercar work.

I have Rhino ramps and can back up onto them. My car is slightly lower (maybe 1") with a Ground Control setup and stock '94 wheels and tires.

I prefer jacking up the car since I can adjust the stands to hold the car higher.
